Alyssa, 16 years old, OR | NEEDED BY 10/30

Wish submitted by:

Alyssa is a bright and expressive young girl who currently lives in a foster home. She entered care at age ten after her father, who had been her primary caregiver, returned to prison. Despite the challenges she’s faced, Alyssa continues to shine through her love of dance. Dancing is how she expresses herself and finds freedom from the heaviness of her past. She dreams of one day becoming a professional dancer, performing in movies or on stage at concerts, where she can share her talent and emotions with the world.

There is no better feeling than being celebrated on your birthday! This wish will provide Alyssa with an extra surprise to open on their special day. Although their celebrations may look different this year, it will remind them that they are valued and remembered on this important occasion!
